A 26-year-old Filipina was killed along with a six-year-old Emirati boy in a car crash in the United Arab Emirates last Sunday night, UAE-based news sites reported Tuesday.
The two were killed on the spot in the crash at Shaikh Khalid bin Saqr Al Qasim Street at 11 p.m. Sunday, Khaleej Times reported.
The report did not identify the victims.
The Filipina had worked as a driver for the Emirati, the report said. The Toyota Camry she was driving had collided with a Cadillac driven by a 27-year-old Emirati man.
On the other hand, the boy's eight-year-old sister was severely injured and was brought to the intensive care unit of Al Qasimi Hospital.
A separate report on Gulf News said initial police investigation showed that the driver of the Cadillac was speeding and driving recklessly.
It quoted Maj. Khalid Al Kay, director of the Media and the Traffic Awareness Department, as saying the accident was due to a lack of attention and speeding.

ReplyDeleteI am Melody Baruc Arcenas Jansen and I am using my daughter's account. Im worried about this blog. May I know what is the full name of the Pinay who was involved in this accident? There's a news spreading in our family that our cousin who was working in UAE was involved and died in a car accident. I just want to clarify if this Pinay is my cousin. If you have any more information about this accident kindly contact me immediately.
